Another Heat Warning

Today they have issued another Heat Warning in Toronto, at the moment it's humid and +33 degrees outside. It was the month of August when I first arrived in Canada six years ago and I remember how much I would complain about the heat in the beginning. Nowadays I start to feel cold if it gets cooler than +24 degrees outside. It's funny how much we can adapt to almost any surroundings. :)

We have a UFO in Toronto, the City Hall building.

One thing I love about Toronto is the very colorful taxi cars, the bright colors make me happy, especially on a grey winter day.

You can tell it's tourist season, and I'm one of them, although I'm more of a "long-term tourist" in the city. :)

I love hanging out down by the waterfront in Toronto on a weekday evening during summer. I'm so glad this city is built right beside the lake.

On a hot day you have to drink a lot, I think I had 1 iced latte and 2 lemonades in one day when I took these pictures last week. Of course you could just drink water, but lemonade is so much more interesting than water. :)

Everybody wants to hang out by the waterfront. Another thing I love about Toronto is that this is a very multicultural city.

Many people seem to like going sailing after work, since there are so many sailboats in this picture.

I'm so glad I ended up in this city, although I never planned to move to Toronto. I wanted to move to the West Coast but I'm so glad I couldn't find a job there, otherwise I would never have come to Toronto and I would never have met my husband. Thank God for closed doors in life! :)

About Me

Four years ago I was still living a pretty normal life, working a regular job and mostly living for the weekends. If someone would have asked me then what my goal was in life my answer would have been: “I just want to enjoy life and I want to be happy!” A pretty common answer among most people I would assume. I was under the impression that “being happy” was pretty much the point with life. I liked happiness so much that I even started a blog about it! The happiness movement was everywhere; in magazines, movies, books etc. The only problem with my happiness goal was that it ended up failing to give me a few things I wanted; contentment, peace, meaning, freedom and lasting joy. My search for happiness eventually led me to God, the maker of life. I thought I knew everything I needed to know about God, but it turned out I hardly even knew the basics. As I started exploring God closer I was very surprised to find the things I had been looking for elsewhere; lasting joy, peace, freedom, contentment and meaning.
